okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for v4l2_rect_overlap — this is the little function that answers the question every rectangle has been dying to ask another rectangle: do we overlap? ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

v4l2_rect_overlap — literally just: do r1 and r2 overlap? 🫶

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

bool v4l2_rect_overlap (const struct v4l2_rect *r1 , const struct
v4l2_rect *r2 );

she's a bool-returning icon, she takes two const struct v4l2_rect * pointers, and she gives you a straight answer. no cap. 👑

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• r1 — a rectangle. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🍓
• r2 — another rectangle. the other half of this situationship. 💜

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

Returns true if r1 and r2 overlap. that's the entire plot, bestie — no twist ending, no hidden lore, just a clean little vibe check between two rectangles. if they're touching each other's space, you get true. if not, you don't. simple as. ✨
